And some of these guys, as well as Ferrante and Teicher, could actually play
well (not sure about Snyder, nothing has ever convinced me of that). And when
they got tired of starving, they played crap and made bushels. Has anyone ever
seen an MGM single by Lou Weertz, Roger Williams's real name? Richard
Clayderman also appealed to the womenfolk (like my wife's aunts). I don't know
why anyone would ever have bought a Ronnie Aldrich record.
